Conferences #147 – Bp. Olmsted on the elements of faith needed for courage today ( 57min) >>> Play

Ave Maria!

Bishop Timothy L. Olmsted of Phoenix, AZ gives a talk called “Blessed are Those Who Believe: Faith and Fidelity Today” at the Courage Annual Conference.  He covers the virtues in general and then focuses on Faith in particular and how to stay strong in this virtue when today’s world is so discouraging. He does this by examining the life of Blessed John Paul II whom he personally knew. Of the many virtues that the Blessed Pope had, Faith is what stands out the most and this is based on his devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary who as St. Elizabeth proclaimed “Blessed is she who believed”. He grew in faith despite having experienced many personal and national tragedies in Poland in World War II and the communist aftermath. This Faith involves three elements 1. Trust in God completely, 2. Ascent, a free ascent to the whole truth, 3. Obedience, to what God asks us to do.

Ave Maria!

From the Shrine website:

Eucharistic Center

This is a small little preview of the much-asked-about John Paul II Eucharistic Center here at the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament and Our Lady of the Angels Monastery. To Catholics and believers of all faiths alike, the reason for the Shrine, while prominent, remains an inexhaustible mystery. At the center and heart of the chapel here is Christ, truly present in the Eucharist. The JPII center is a ‘small’ yet significant and innovative tribute to Jesus’ unfathomable gift to us – Himself in the Eucharist. Here, visitors to the Shrine can step into recreations of a Jewish home at Passover (a foreshadowing of the Eucharist) and a constructed synagogue like the one where Christ gave the discourse in John chapter 6.

On display are immense paintings depicting the price Christ paid to give us this memorial of His passion and death. Multi Media presentations including stunning reenactments of historical Eucharistic miracles as well as dynamic question and answer segments at various booths. Not least of all are tributes to Saints and martyrs who gave the ultimate confession of faith in Christ’s Real Presence – their own life. Your prayers and support for this great work are truly appreciated! Adoro te devote!

Man’s cooperation with God in the unfolding mission of redemption in human history is sublimely and supremely evident at Fatima, which bears the imprint of both the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred of Jesus.

The message regarding the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary reveals God’s will for the unique cooperation of Our Lady, the Co-Redemptress with the Redeemer, Our Lord Jesus. The Triumph of Her Immaculate Heart is the means by which God wills to realize the Triumph of Jesus’ Sacred Heart.

By God’s will, all His elect are involved in hierarchical meditation, but most especially the Mother, who brought Him into the world and brings the world to Jesus, Who in turn, as revealed in Scripture, submits all to the Father (Cf. 1 Corinthians 15:28).

Ave Maria!

The post Msgr. Calkins, Fr. Elias – Q&A Session 1, Fatima Centennial Conference – October 7, 2017 first appeared on AirMaria.com.

Monsignor explains that the apparition of St. Joseph to the Fatima seers during the famous Miracle of the Sun heralded the Church’s increased veneration of him throughout the Twentieth Century. Several important developments were the establishment of the Feast of St. Joseph the Worker, and Pope St. John Paul II’s Apostolic Exhortation on the Person and Mission of Saint Joseph in the Life of Christ and of the Church, Redemptoris Custos.
